Snap

Snappy screenshots and whiteboarding.

Note: This is very much a work in progress.

About this project

Both the stability and the performance of Microsoft Whiteboard and Microsoft Snipping tool have left something to wish for. Neither tool works that well with 4K resolutions and especially Snipping Tool has become more and more buggy over the past 2 years.

Since I couldn't quite find what I was looking for I'm trying to build my own.
